IC plot - Summer Fest!

[histories]

Hey guys, this is Keine-mun here.

As some of you might have already noticed, Keine is beginning to plan a summer festival, to be held later in August, somewhere around 3rd or 4th of August, on a weekend.

So, I'm just trying to gather more interest OOCly, and for open up an OOC volunteer signup in the case where would rather handwave your character expressing their interest in the matter.

Additionally, let's get a bit of planning done over here! Should this go down, we'll need people capable of setting up booths, a location for general mingling as well as (hopefully) a shrine or temple where there could be the more traditional practices going down as well.

Oh, for added reality after the IC festival planning is underway, we might be doing a RNG in order to decide if the event is postponed, ruined partially/entirely, or go smoothly throughout in the end, depending on the prevailing weather conditions. Maybe. We'll see.

So, anyone up for this?

Alex is definitely interested in helping out! She's very handy and she can help with setting up booths, painting walls and banners,etc. And she can also cook so she could probably help out at any food booths that were to be at the festival. :)

It'd be fun to get an overall idea of activities at the festival too - not sure what kinds of things there usually is at festivals like this, but besides the booths there could probably be a few games and the like? Just a thought!

While Keine was originally aiming for a more Japanese-esque feel for the festival itself, she had also invited people to bring in elements from their own cultures, so as to make it something truly unique to Holly Heights.

For an overall feel for the activities, she intends to include some very usual activities at these festivals: A folk dance close to the end of the festival itself, as well as a fireworks show... Assuming they figure out how to make those or something similar, that is. I imagine they might replace that with a fire show through Mokou instead, though. (heh) Gotta poke Mokou-mun on that.

As for games, some rather usual booths for recreation include goldfish scooping, ring tossing... typically things you could find at a carnival, really. All of those can be incorporated into this festival, so long as enough planning is done in advance and we can get the numbers and resources necessary to realistically build and set everything up.

Yeah, that's the kind of thing I was thinking about. Cool! I'm gonna post on my plurk later today too, and hopefully we'll have enough people interested.

In the meantime I'll be away until sunday, but I'm posting with Alex when I come back. I can have her mention the festival too.
